These are basically nuisance complaints, stating failure to comply with the order of the zoning administrator. This will force the court to order the property owner to comply.

Ordinance 2018-26 ORDINANCE 2017-69 REVISING APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE VILLAGE OF CADIZ FOR FISCAL YEAR 2018 IN THE SEWER OPERATING FUND Public Comment: Mr. Darrell Romshak appeared this evening, informing members that he had dropped off a copy of the O.R.C. to Administrator Bowman regarding the installation of fire hydrants which is not being complied with on Maplewood Drive. He has since been told that the problem will be rectified, to which he was pleased. He was not happy however, to see the gas company come in and tear up all the concrete that the contractor had already put down, and filled it in with dirt, and wondered if this was standard procedure. Administrator Bowman replied that the gas company comes in, and only puts back in what they want. Clerk Ossman interjected that the Village has an ordinance against that, with Councilman McPeak adding that the Police department should get involved and take action to shut down whatever utility is non-compliant. Solicitor Mastros informed members that these utility companies have certain rights, and that he remembered writing a letter in the past, and offering to do so again. (Mr. Dale Davis did not appear, as documented at the start of the meeting.)
